Smith grew up a Padres fan and up until last year, as a member of the freaking San Francisco 49ers, he was wearing a Padres hat.

San Francisco dislikes Los Angeles in an angry way in baseball, but the city's lack of a football team (*snicker*) makes them a little hard to hate for football purposes. (Yeah, that was a total cheapshot.)

"The one thing I've always appreciated are loyal fans, so I'm not going to stop rooting for the Padres," Smith said. "But I'm a Giants fan, too."

This, folks, is a brilliant PR move. And I'm gonna lob out that it was Harbaugh's idea too -- he probably scoped out that Smith was wearing a Pads hat in the locker room and got him to change to a Giants hat.

And while he was at it, he clearly sent Smith to the tanning salon and bought him a beard trimmer. And possibly replaced him with a cyborg who doesn't throw interceptions.

So yeah, it's either Extreme Makeover: NFL Edition, or Smith's no longer cheering for a team that's made the playoffs five times in the last 40 or so years.
